Feel Golf Company and the International Players Tour (IPT) have joined forces for the 2008 Tour Season with Feel Golf designated as “The Official Wedge” of the IPT, giving unique access to Feels technology for the IPT membership.
“I'm extremely excited about our partnership with Feel Golf and the tremendous benefits from this association,” stated Ron Beaman, Founder and President of the IPT.
“Our players now have unique access to the premier wedge technology in the world from Feel Golf. The partnership also brings many new 'Added-Value” benefits to our members, especially Feels sponsorship of cash bonuses to our players. The cash bonuses will be awarded to category winners as part of our overall player incentive program, the first in our industry.”
Bill Conwell, SVP-Business Development of the IPT, stated: “The strategic partnership with Feel Golf has tremendous benefits for both organizations. We are certainly honored to be the first major “avid golfer” tour to fully endorse Feel Golfs leading edge wedge technology. Their award-winning wedge sets, including the revolutionary 73 degree, are clearly leading the next era of innovative design.”
“We are very pleased to participate as a key sponsor on the IPT,” stated Lee Miller, CEO of Feel Golf and PGA Member. “While we already have a presence on the PGA, LPGA and other professional Tours, our association with the IPT allows us access to the avid golfer golfers with handicaps ranging from +2 to 26, and includes professionals as well. These are the golfers who enjoy competitive golf, and play golf with a passion. As a golf club and golf grip OEM, access to these important golfers is an excellent avenue to building brand awareness and garnering new customers.”
Greg Cottingham, PGA Professional and General Manager of Feel Golf stated: “Many of our existing customers include serious recreational amateurs and/or scratch players that enjoy a competitive round of golf with fellow golfers with similar handicaps. The IPT is a way for us to showcase our excellent line of premium golf products to our target market and we see the IPT growing its already strong base of these competitive golfers.”
